ABAC PCA Pro Rodeo Rides into Tifton Nov. 14-15
TIFTON – Saddle Up, South Georgia! The ABAC PCA Pro Rodeo returns to Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College on Nov. 14–15, and expectations are sky-high for an event that’s bigger, bolder, and packed with excitement for all ages.
Presented by the elite 3R Rodeo Company, this high-energy event kicks off each night with gates opening at 5 p.m., Mutton Bustin’ at 6 p.m., and full-throttle rodeo action at 7 p.m. From wild rides to big thrills, the ABAC PCA Pro Rodeo promises two unforgettable nights under the South Georgia lights.
“Events like the ABAC PCA Pro Rodeo showcase the powerful connection between the college and the communities we serve,” said Dr. Tracy Brundage, President of ABAC. “It’s an opportunity to celebrate our agricultural heritage, support student learning, and extend ABAC’s warm hospitality to guests from across the region.”
This year’s rodeo is pulling out all the stops with expanded seating, new features, and fan-favorite traditions. VIP tickets are available for $30, which include reserved seating and complimentary drink tickets for a premium rodeo experience. General admission is $20 for ages 6 and up, and children 5 and under get in free—making this a family-friendly event you won’t want to miss.
For the youngest cowboys and cowgirls under 50 pounds, Mutton Bustin’ joins the lineup at $25 per entry, giving kids the chance to hold tight for a woolly ride and compete for a shiny belt buckle each night.
Expect jaw-dropping performances in bull riding, bareback riding, team roping, calf roping, and more — plus the Rawhide and Dusty Show, where horse and rider defy gravity and push the limits of what’s possible.
The rodeo grounds will be bursting with flavor, flair, and fun. ABAC’s Stallion Shop will offer exclusive rodeo merchandise, while ABAC Dining & Catering Services fire up the grill with their legendary turkey legs. Alpha Gamma Rho serves up classic rodeo eats with a dose of Southern charm, and Southern Concessions will satisfy every fair-food craving. Sweet treats await from Funnel Cake Lounge, and SnoBiz delivers frosty favorites in every flavor imaginable.
For hands-on fun, Coastal Designs will host a Trucker Hat Bar where guests can customize their own rodeo-ready cap, and Flying M Mechanical Bull will test who can hold on the longest in South Georgia’s wildest ride.
The Fall Rodeo is one of ABAC’s signature events and a great way to welcome guests from across the region to experience the excitement of rodeo culture on our campus,” said Deidra Jackson, Vice President for Finance and Operations at ABAC. “We are pleased to partner with 3R Rodeo Company to present an event that celebrates the qualities that define our region — strong family ties, a deep sense of community, and the enduring tradition of rodeo.”
